Gita in bici di un giorno da Utrecht a Amsterdam

Ready for a classic Dutch cycling adventure? This route takes you from Utrecht, the lively, bike-loving heart of the Netherlands, all the way to Amsterdam—home of canals, culture, and the iconic Rijksmuseum.

It’s around 48 kilometers of easy-going pedaling, mostly along smooth, dedicated cycleways (over 90%!) with hardly any traffic to worry about. You’ll pass through the lush, flat landscapes typical of the region, keeping your total ascent to an easy 55 meters—more time to enjoy the scenery than to worry about hills!

Along the way, enjoy peaceful Dutch villages, open fields, and perhaps a windmill or two. Utrecht’s charming old city sets the stage, and Amsterdam welcomes you at the finish, with its world-famous canal belt and vibrant café life. The ride is mostly paved, with a touch of paving stones for that classic European feel. So hop on, grab some stroopwafels for the journey, and experience one of Holland’s most iconic bike routes!
